I have been lusting after a G4 powerbook recently and since they are currently $500 reduced for education buyers in the UK now might be a good time.
I still have some generalised and gentoo specific concerns about it though, namely How well does the PPC install of Gentoo work? Is it pretty slick? How many of the Gentoo packages work well on PPC? Does the lack of a second and third mouse key make X (esp c/p and fluxbox menus) a real pain? (Cant really add a mouse in a convenient fashion to a powerbook.) Why on earth doesn't it have a pgup/pgdown key? (From what I have seen of the photos and things.) Answers on a postcard :o) Thanks, Richard -- This line intentionally left blank. 20:02:19 up 2 days, 2:29, 2 users, load average: 0.23, 0.09, 0.03 RX bytes:2653845664 (2530.9 Mb) TX bytes:427091070 (407.3 Mb) E-mail address munged to prevent spam. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
